Welcome back to the Harpa Concert Hall here in Reykjavik, and to the 2nd Daily Song Contest. We still have another 9 countries and juries to go. And at the moment it is again all tied at the top of the leaderboard between Rwanda and Sweden, with the matter of just 6 point separating them both. However, now it is time to call Auckland, and New Zealand. Once again, good evening Lorde.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is still all tied, and we are going into the last jury, the World jury, with 4 possible winners, and they are the following: Iceland and Rwanda who are both tied at the top at 121 points, but we also have Sweden on 116 points, and Denmark on 115 points who are only just trailing behind too, and it is still mathematically possible for them to contend. Now we will turn to the World Jury, who will split this stale mate, which is made of 5 industry professionals from across the globe. We will now call our World Jury spokesperson Ban Ki-Moon in Geneva to deliver the deciding points! Good evening Mr. Ki-Moon, are you ready to announce our victor?
I am most certainly ready! Our jury members have been thoroughly enjoying tonight's show, and they'd like to thank you Iceland for hosting a fantastic show tonight.

Grattis SVERIGE, SWEDEN, grattis Måns Zelmerlöw! This means that next year we will meet in Sweden, but before we go we will grab an interview with our winner Måns Zelmerlöw!
Måns, congratulation on winning the Daily Song Contest, how do you feel? This is absolutely amazing, I never imagined to win the contest, I just came here to represent Sweden and to make them proud! Is there anything you want to say to your fans and the people who voted for you? Yes, I would like to thank everybody who supported me along the way, and I'd like to think that we can all be heroes, and we can all make a difference to this planet. Thank you so, so much! And Måns, I guess you have to sing us out with your song 'Heroes', so you better get ready to do that. Thank you so much! I love you all!
Now it is time to say thank you to all the production crew here in Iceland and across the many different DSC delegations who made this show as amazing as it was! Thank you to all the head of delegations and performers, and you you to all of you at home for watching tonight! Now it is time to say goodbye, but before, we will leave you with our winning song 'Heroes' by Måns Zelmerlöw! We will see you next season in Sweden!

Fun fact: Rwanda would've come fourth if my votes wouldn't suddenly have disappeared. Not that it matters, Sweden would've won either way. Speaking of Sweden: I'd like to take the opportunity to say a personal "fuck you" to whoever was creative enough to enter that song.
Edit: Oh and New Zealand would've made the Top 5 if that makes you happy Jandal.
BTW Big thank you to trek and whoever else voted for Ireland, you really recognize a good song when you hear one!
